EBC X / XC Series - Full floating discs for the front wheel. These brake
discs replace many of the LS (left) / RS (right) brake discs and can be
installed on both sides. The steel used for the new EBC brake discs is a
special stainless steel compound with a higher friction effect than that
of conventional heat-treated stainless steel brake discs. With the 10%
improvement in the friction effect, the braking force is further
increased. The weight of the new series '' X '' and '' XC '' is reduced
by a further 5-10% due to the 6-rivet system with a light-weight inner
ring, which in turn means an improvement over conventional brake discs.
The new brake discs are equipped with the unique and patented SD system
from EBC, whose square rivets in the recesses of the brake disc under
the heat generated during braking allow an unrestricted expansion of the
outer and inner ring without affecting the rivet connection. Such an
impairment occurs when the brake disc is heated by strong braking and
the outer ring contacts the (usually round) rivets which separate the
outer ring from the inner ring. With the new EBC system, this problem is
avoided, which causes 100% of the brake disc defects caused by warping
of the disc and vibrations.What is the SD system? This is the new
four-cornered riveting system from EBC. This system completely prevents
distortion of the brake disc, increases the life of the brake disc, and
improves the braking performance.
